MAJ. BACON'S APPOINTMENTS.
Dalton, October t
Carrollton, October 3.
MB. OIUSP TONIGHT.
Speaker Crisp la probably the moat
popular public man in. Georgia. Tho
people of thin irtnlo nro proud of him,
not only iiecnuxo of tbo exalted gtatlon
to which he lias attained but beenuso
of tho qinUltlcfl and abilities which on.
ntiled him to rise to that station. They
recognize In him a great political
leader.
Mr. Crisp will, therefore, be greeted
by a largo audience of tulereaied and
Intelligent people, who will gee in him
Bio beet exponent of tho work of
the congress of which ho la the moat
prominent olfioUI. Tho spiKSChc* which
Mr. Crtap him boon maxing la thin cam
putgn have been addressed mainly to
the criticism of the party'* cuciiiIcm
that when entrusted with power it hue
failed to nnecmpligh anything. Ills nn
awer to Uila critlctain ha* I icon very ef
fective. In hie Atlanta speaeli lio'de-
clnreil that no party, In nuy country,
hud In eo short a time dono go much for
tbo people, unit backed up this declara
tion with a very gtriktag, while en
tirely true, gtatement of the pnrly'g
achievement*. IVe think thin kind of
campaign extremely valuable, bccauao
tho discontent Su tho party which hit*
mndc the Populigt movement posKlblo
1* baaed almost entirely on misrepre
sentation of tho party'* motives anil of
its net*. Mr. Crisp, In showing that,
though In power only a few months,
tho party bus accomplished much, nud
Hint in the right illrccUou, strike* at
the very mainspring of tho movement.
Tho people nro slow to lose conlldcnco
In tho DcinocraUo parly. They know
that It has served them well, Homo of
them have been deceived, havo been
led away, but when they are convinced
tlint the pnrty Is still worthy of trust,
that Its purposes are high and unselfish
nnd Its power to accomplish results
great, Uiey will come buck again.
Mr. Crisp Is cmitlcd. because of bln
services, to the wannest klud of a're-
ceptlon In Mncun, liuil we aro sure will
rccelvo such an one.

Bacon Is lu tho very primo of tils man
hood smt lntellcetual vigor, but few

lilt success In business Is due not
only to his brilliant nud logical mind,
but la due also to his systematic meUi-

Judge M'UIlnm M. Roe-- ot Washing-
ton. Wilkes couuty, In speaking of Ba
con's capacity for boslnog amt labor,
*M that while sjieaker of the house
MiJ. lkuvn was, not only ono of tho

**> thorouglily in hand that at nuy
time ho could tell on the stage of png.
iv»s of at oh conunlttM, and that the
ability to do this »-> well evinced not
only a wonderful cupoody for business,
but su energy of labor and power of
endurance with which vety few men
tiro outlawed.
Dr. P. IL MeO, when ohar.eellor of
the Slate University, oooo said of MaJ.
Usees that lu- was the greatest master

sneo with the affairs of state aud Ills
wonderful capacity for bulsuoss, all
render him thoroughly equipped for
the great Work which comes before tho
Vollod Stab'S senate. In hliu ivntre
those qualifications which would make
him tho peer of any senator from any
auto in tbo Union.
Mil. SMITH'S SUCCESS.
One of tbo most prominent gentle
men In Mscou, on old dttaon. raid to
the Telegraph yesterday that Jlr. Hoke
Smith’s address was the ablest which
Iw had known to be delivered in this
city. M'e think this gentleman voiced
tho general option of Mr. Smith's hoar
H*. V.’e know that the address made a
profound Impression upon his audi
ence. '
Tho reason why it had this effect
seems plain to us. Mr. Smith paid his
audience tho comjdlutcut of nssum.ug
tluit they were Intelligent men, honest
ly and earnestly seeking i nllghtinnnt :,s
to Hie merits of a great public ques
tion. As we said, ,n commenting on
Ills speech yesterday, he ttddioascd him
self exclusively to their Intelligence. Ho
did in,i piocead as If he regarded them
Idlers seeking diversion or as partisans
eager to liavo their prejudices con
firmed. Uls sjus-oh was u very great
success becanso Its plainness, straight
forwardness and transparent honesty
fitted tho occasion and tho crowd.
In dealing with Hie free coinage prob
lem Mr. Smith showed u firm and
strong grasp of the history and the log
ic of tho silver partition. HU experi
ence ought to ho a lesson fi> other
speakers in this campaign. It ought
teach them Unit the people are pro
foundly ta earnest In Hielr considera
tion of tho currency question, ubd when
they attcud public mectlnga are seek
ing, not amusement, not gratification
of any bind, but information on which
to base their acUous as clUzcns. It
Mr. Smith's merit that he has realized
tho truth of tho sltuaUon, It U credi:
able to nltn Hint before coming before
the people ho had gained the knowledge
that gives him oomplute grasp of bis
subject and makes him a valuable In
structor. Ho is doing his party nnd tho
oountry service of tho most valuable
kind. Ho Is using tho words of truth
and soberness at a ttmo when tho poo-
g are in danger of being carried
away wltlr Hie schemes of visionaries
Incapable of a y sound Judgment and of
demagogues reckless of the, future
they can gain an Immediate advance
ment for themselves.
A ROAD EXPERIMENT.
This U no time for the pcoph, w l;o be
lieve In good government, in lower tax-
atom, In the Democratic doctrine of the
least possible governmental Interior
enee with the rights of individuals,
compatible with public safety, to sulk
or desert.'Personal preferences mint
be laid aside, personal dlaoppolntmeit*
must be subordinated to tiie general
good and all who arc Democrats mint
vote the ticket
The principal public roads of Bibb
county are probably '.tho best In the
slate. They are carefully nml system
atically worked aud In dry weather
leave little to bo desired. They nro an
good, or almost ns good, as mere “dirt'
roads can bo tirade. When tho rains of
winter begin to fall another story must
bo told. They may bo still tho best
country roads lu tho slate, but tlio
clinging red clay of our hills makes
them anything but good roads. They
lire bud, under such oircumstunccs, for
tho simple reason' that dirt roads In
clay oouutry are always had during
tho wet season. They cannot be made
otherwise.
We print elsewhere a short letter
from Mr. S. A. # Crump, lu which ho
suggests a cheap nud easy method by
which tho county may provide Itself
the stono roads which are almost abso
lutely necessary lu winter. M’o can not
say that wo npprovo Mr. Crump's plan,
It Is entirely experimental, and it docs
not seem to us that the experiment
would certainly result In the smooth.
Art roads which experience has demon
strated contribute eo mtien to tho pros
perity and happiness of rural eomrmnl-
Uce But Mr. Crump probably knows
more about roml mnklug than the Tele
graph, nud ho seeks tho samo -purpose
We print his letter beoiiue tho matter
seems to us ouo of prime importance,
and tiecau3e wo hopo that In time tho
publlo demand for good romls will be
so strong ns to compel the adoption of
Hits plan or of some other which ex
amination may show to bo more prom-
slug.
The Fopullsts not only want tlm gov
ernment to own nnd operate all tho
railroads in Hie -country, hut also have
In mind the ownership and operation
of nil tho coal beds. Senator Pefier’s
-solution touching this subject, intro
duced on July 0, 1SD4, reads: "Third.
hat nil coni beds ought to bo owned
nml worked by tlie states or federal
government, aud tho wages of alt per-
wlio work In tho mines ought to
lie provided for liy law anil paid lu
m*y when due." If It is right for gov
ernment to own "(he coni mines, why
not tho silver ra.nes, tho gold mines,
the copper mines, too Iren mines und
nU tho oUier mines, in fact, why stop
at tho tnlno«? Why not have tho gov
ernment - own over/tliing* Then we
could nU have government Jobs.
The Jegttlmhto result of the fooling
of tho ropullsts with negroes Is seen
In Chattahoochee county. There are
two white candidates for slu r.If,In that
county, one a Democrat, the ether a
polish The white vote of Ohatfcthoo-
heo is pretty evenly divided. Now n
NW luinonnoes his candidacy for the
flic* of -sheriff and If those of his col-
or rally to his support, ns they may,
stands n mighty good chance of
lection, fer of die SOJ polls in that
I'ounly 503 were negroes. What has
happened lu Chattahoochee is liable to
liapiH'ii In every county In south t?cor-
g.a unloss the Populists are buried an
tler MK'h a majority next Wednesday
that they will conclude to go out of

Tho “contraction" lu the currency of
the United State* has beg* truly re
markable* In IStnl It was Just ft.mi
per capita. In 1800 It had been “con-
tructod" so that there was only Mil.s.1
per capita to circulation. The poilcy of
"e-uitractleu" lias Ixvu steadily pur-
sueil until now tho circulation uas
reached the figure of nearly pe
capita. In the year 1803 President
Cleveland’s admtolstratlou "coulracted'
the volume of currency by adding to
it $UG,71d,d22. What a lot of tommy
ret Is talked about rentractlon by
would-be financiers, to be sure*
That speech of Seustor IIIU to the
Democrats of New York had the true
ring. What he says not only flu the
situation In New York. but in Gcorghi
and to evary other state to too Union.
M’lth the Northwest first scourged by
fire and then swept by Humes, every
effort should lie put forth by these In
terested In filling up the South with
thrifty, lianl Working farmers. They
should be puttlug to tlu-.r beet licks In
those sections right now. Already the
••yes of these people are turned towards
Hia. -8ouUi.lt should be shown to then!
that Georgia soil can always be depend
ed on to yield a brant if u> harvest to In
telligent cullirntlon.
The whole country will agree with
Senator Hill in toe hope that the sintl-
quuted rulet of tho United States sen
ate will be so amended as to put It out
of the power of a few obstructionists
to defeat Hie will of a vast majority of
tho people.
N-W '. o>k'» Democracy Indorses
President Cleveland. Connecticut's De
mocracy follows suit nnd the good
Democrats of Colorado proclaim that
he i» nU right na l refuse to have any
thin? to a- with the Populists. Demo
crats are surely getting together.
Tho Midway Plalsanco at the Dixie
Interstate Pair will he the finest yet
seen in the South. Sonvtury Knapp Is
a hustler and by tho time tho fair
opens everything will bo in readiness
for too biggest show ever seen In mid
dle Georgia.
Jasper Joined too Bacon column with'
great unanimity Tuesday. Tho people
of Georgia arc looking after MaJ. Ba
con's candidacy nnd they are going to
elect him to the United States senate
this time, sure.
All that ts needed to swell the Dem
ocratic majority in Bibb county to 3,500
next Wednesday Is the hearty co-opem-
tiou of every Democrat Id tho county.
This tho party has a right to expect,
and It wilt get It.
If you haven't paid your taxes for
1803 do so at once. Every Democratic
vite to Bibb county Is needed next
Wednesday nnd wo must have It.

liglil Is thrown on a very much vex
ed question by tho Waycrews -Herald aa
follow#:
‘No, non, 16 to 1 does not mean that
you shall got >16 for wind Jamming
when you now get ono for hard work.
Some of the 'Pops' think rt means that,
but they are mistaken. Nor does free
nml unlimited coinage mean that you
shall have an unlimited njimber o( dol
lars free ot cost to yourself. Some of
three alleged Democrat:* say that this la
what it mains, but ft doesn't.''
Tho LawrencevlHo Nevs aiio express
es Itself with grealt cjo.irncu on the po
ntoon of the Democratic party to sliver.
It says: * ,
"Prom some Democratic sources we
hear expressions which would Indicate
that there ts no difference between the»
Bcmocrotlo and Populist pliCfornw on
the money question, The people must
not be deceived by any such false doc
trine. The Democracy l* pledged abso

and us Aldermen Bnak und Blink bad
not seen -him talktng to her. Ihe told
ter -to go over to where they were

In frook of one of them gave a loud
cry of deltgWred surprise and In '.oner
thu-t could be heard every one In the
tont excktton'ed: "Ain’t tills Juke
Blank?"
Ufr. Blank had not before noticed the
woman, and Ws surprised can be bet
ter Imagined than 'described. In fret,
'Joe astute alderman was almost
knocked off his. feet when he looked at
the wamton. He knew he hud never
seen her before, but the crowd toughed
uotl emburaaseU him. He recovered
sufficiently, however, to draw himself
up inn dignified manner and say: "YeJ,

-Jlr. Blank was about to rush from

however, and continued her caresses
Und pelt names. The alderman tried to

the crowd had enjoyed tho scene to
their heart's content 'Chat she finally

The stroller had the opportunity of wit
nessing some of the vexations of a public
school superintendent the other afternoon,
while titling In the office of Superintend
ent Abbott on Second street, waiting to
get In a side shot at that long suffering,
but much abused public servant. It seems
not to be sufficient that the superintend
ent haa to answer oil prayers of tho dis
appointed and weeping Uttlec ones who
com© In with their grievances, and to
submit to such other petty worries Which
the duties of his office call down upon
his forbearing spirit.
The professor had Just bowed, a sad
faced lady patron out with the fairest
promises within hts power to make that
he would "see what he could do about"
allowing her little boy go on to tho next
class, when a care-worn and altogether
comical looking countryman Jammed bis
head In at the aid© window and inquired:
•*B© you a jenttca uv the peace?”
•'No; tw> doors below, upstairs," the
professor replied pleasantly, not looking
up from a long eolunm of figures that
he was porelng over.
"Kin you tell me If he is ter his office?”
com© nextf rom the vtsitor.and he squirted
a »ong string of tobacco through his teeth
up against tbe outside wall of the office,
at the same time lifting his long foot,
newly shod In {substantial brogans, Into
the window.
"I cannot, n!r;" Ihe professor answered
this time, looking up at his caller hU
spectacle* The man said "thankee,"
and shuffled on down.the street.
It was only a few minutes respite that
followed, for scon another man wanted to
•ell the superintendent some brooms. Then
the irrepressible book «£ent came. The
time had come now. The vender of pat
ent literature wanted the superintendent's
recommendation of a'dozen or more vol
ume* that ht roll©! out an apparently
■null leather cose in which to look st.
It seemed too much for a school boy’s
hinibaje.
At this Juncture the Stroller withdrew,
leaving the superintendent In ’pathetic re
monstrance with the 'igent to go away
on4 1st him alone. RettorQfnjr iat»r be
found the office closed. Tne professor no
doubt escaped out the back way, and
took his "column oC figures” homo to
finish them tip In the peace and quiet of
his own fireside.

BIBB COUNTY'S ROADS.
To tbe Editor of the Telegnajfa: Your
editorial In today’s (25th) paper on good
roads, and wtoat the citizens of Meck
lenburg county, North Carolina, are
doing, ca-ls up toe question of gpod
raikiH la Bibb coutny. Our road3 non-
are as goal as we could expect under
■the system of-worMn givith plck.-rft-avel
and marii>lne-<u> reach temporary re
sults. The work. I day, is good enough,
but the system Is bad. The roads are
-perfodlouily "done over," tile holes
filled dn with sand or clay and left for
the next "period." The plan adopted
by our ‘Mecklenburg neighbors Is t!ho
only solution to our rood question. Wo
may ndt flnU the people oCBtbb so pa
triotically enthusiastic, but I dare say
.we wbuM find great unanimity rnrong
all oJoBses on the question of a rock
road. I am convinced that no publlo
road In >Blbb county, west of 'the river,
traverses a space of more than one mile
without fining plenty of rock piled up
in adjacent fields sufficient to build
one-half olf the road in rock. These
rocks are “piled out of the way. The
owner of the kind would gladly donate
them to the county, or, for a trtiHng
sum could afford, to "laying hyrtime,"
to -pHe these rocks "out of the way
(in 'the way) upon the public roads.
Ten cents per wagon load would pay
toe former. I venture toe assertion
thlat If our enterprising commissioners
will try Uhls system, say. In one mile
of road selected where (he best results
can be obtained, -they will -be oat only
amazed, but gratefully remembered
by <am good men -who see their works.
Yburs truly, 8. A. Crump.
